Forums - Gaming - Games You'd Buy Regardless of Reviews

Nearly any JRPG because western reviewers hate JRPG's and I love them....lol, e.g. WKC or SO4 could have a 2.0 on Metacritic and I'd still buy them.

I NEVER buy a game ignoring the reviews. The diference is that I buy some games even if the reviews is below average if I know I like the genre. For example I usually buy games that have a meta-score of 7.5 or above, but if its a RPG i will buy even if the meta-score is between 6.5 and 7.5.

I don't buy games bellow 6.5 because they have a lot of problems, bugs, control issues, etc.



Any RPG



  • 2010 MUST Haves: WKC, Heavy Rain, GoWIII, Fable III, Mass Effect 2, Bayonetta, Darksiders, FFXIII, Alan Wake, No More Heroes 2, Fragile Dreams: FRotM, Trinity: SoZ, BFBC2.
  • Older Need To Buys: Super Mario Bros. Wii, Mario Kart Wii, Deadspace, Demon's Souls, Uncharted 2.

There is definitely more to list that I want, but that's my main focus there.

Any SSB game, most Sonic games (Secret Rings Unleashed & Black Knight), Shadow the Hedgehog (It's actually a good game, minus vehicles and the lack of ammo, which can be fixed via Action Replay...)

SMG, NMH and NMH, The Conduit, Madworld... more...
